Removal:
Start by supporting the car on a lift, or 4 jack stands on a level surface about two
or more feet off of the ground. Disconnect negative battery cable before any work
begins.
Once noting the placement of the stock exhaust parts you will need to start by
removing the old exhaust components. Start by removing the fuel rail cover on top of the
engine. This simply unclips and pulls off. Once that is done then set this aside. You will
also have to unbolt and remove the oil dipstick from the passenger side of the engine,
which you can do now. There is one bolt holding this down and it simply pulls out from
the block. Note the o-ring seal at the bottom.
Figure 1: Removing factory dipstick
Move on to removing the spark plug wires and spark plugs from the engine. Be
careful not to drop any of the spark plugs as this will damage the plug and cause a misfire
condition. Also make sure to pull by the boot on the wires or they will separate. If your
car has over 30,000 miles now is a good time to think about new wires. Once this is
done, the next electrical part that needs to be completed is removal of the factory 02
sensors. There are 4 sensors in the stock exhaust. Unclip the sensors from their wires
and make note which sensors are used in the front and which are used in the rear. You
may find this easier to do after the factory H pipe has been removed.
At this point it is time to start removing the factory exhaust system. You will start
by spraying all hangers with WD40 to make removal easier. Then you will need to
remove the center tunnel brace that spans the center tunnel. Set this and the bolts aside.
